When Ms Moore was 17, she met her now husband, Russ on their first day of work together.

She was a receptionist and he was a sales representative at a plastic packaging company.

At age 22, they married and have been happy ever since.

They have three children, Alex, 24, Harrison, 20, and Portia, 14, and two grandsons.

The couple, who have been married for 25 years, adopted Portia from India when she was six days old.

"I wanted to give a girl the life I didn't have," she said.

The inspirational speaker and mentor now educates women across the globe on having a purpose.

She is currently on her "YJuly" road trip tour from the Gold Coast to Wollongong to ask women "what's your Y" and to raise much-needed funds for FFLV - a charity giving girls in India a good start in life.

"Arranged marriage is still common now but a lot more woman are speaking up and are a lot more educated," Ms Moore said.

"One in 100 rural girls in India go to school. The other 99 are married off at age 10, 11 or 12."

The official YJuly day is being celebrated on July 22 where Ms Moore hopes to break a Guinness World Records title of the largest human formation of the letter Y.
